Pin Valley National Park

Reviewed By AakashK190 - New Delhi, India

The roads are bad as soon you cut off from the main highway towards kaza. The trail has amazing landscapes along the way. We stayed at mudh which is the farthest we could go. The landscapes are amazing from there.

Tabo Monastery

Reviewed By Nanakolkata

Very recently during my early June’19 visit to Spiti Valley, Himachal Pradesh, it was my privilege to visit this great monastery. Situated at a height of ~3,000mts. I have no hesitation in accepting my lack of knowledge about this wonderful heritage of our country. Established in 996 CE its unique painting and murals took my breath away. The old enclosure of the monastery is a must see for one and all, because there is no parallel to the magnificent painting and murals on the walls. Hundreds of painting describing various aspects of the Life of Buddha. Painted with only naturally occurring natural dyes and pigments itself mark it uniqueness. The dark alley for walking around the deity had no light [No electricity till date] and painting were drawn in the light of the burning oil lamps. One can view the paintings and statues with the help of a torch provided on request. No photography is allowed and even mobile phone is not allowed. I spend nearly an hour just to get a glimpse and wished all the while for more time. The entry and timing is restricted. Condition of dyes and pigments are still quite amazingly excellent barring a few which show signs of deterioration. The finesse of the work can match the work of Ajanta. It primarily belongs to two distinct period, one in around 700 AD and second ones around 16-17th century?? Even the calmness of the complex made me offer my prayers to achieve overall peace for all human, animal and plant lives. There is no entry fee. The monastery depends on donations and they sell posters/postcards etc. for raising money to help Spitian children. The structure and statues are made of mud-bricks and/or wood. I can only wish that more interested tourists from India and abroad visit this monastery and help its cause with willful donations. The outer and later period complex is nicely preserved and in tune with the earlier architecture. It has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Kibber Village

Reviewed By Madhurimadarisi

It looked like any other village in Spiti. What made it different was the experience. As we walked through the desolate street, an old lady called us in. She and her family were very welcoming. They made us a hot beverage that warmed us up from inside. They were roasting their barley to store it up for the winter. They told us stories about their village and we left, feeling blessed.

Langza

Reviewed By Madhurimadarisi

We drove through the chilly air to reach the gigantic Buddha statue in Langza. Amidst the snow clad mountains, the statue sits majestically braving the chilly air. It is an amazing spot for clicking good pictures. Langza is known as the fossil village, as the mountains there contain fossilized stones and can be naturally be found. A few girls came up to the statue selling the fossils they had collected. Once we made our purchase, I initiated a conversation. Shy at first, they told me about their way of life and also played hide and seek with me. All in all, an amazing experience
